With a class 1 lever, does mechanical advantage increase or decrease as the fulcrum is moved closer to the load? Explain why. ​

Answer:

L1 F1 = L2 F2   explains balancing torques

F1 = load = counterclockwise torque

F2 = applied force - clockwise torque

L represents distances from fulcrum to the applied forces

F2 = F1 * (L1 / L2)                (I)

MA mechanical advantage = (L2 / L1)     load over applied force

We can rewrite equation (I) as

load force / applied force = applied distance / load distance

As the fulcrum is moved closer to the load L1 decreases and L2 increases which corresponds to an increase in MA

An egg is thrown upward with a velocity of 4.5 m/s. How long will it take to reach it's maximum height?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.45 seconds

Explanation:

Letting the value of g = 10 m/s/s

final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (since the egg will come to rest at the maximum height)

initial velocity(u) = 4.5 m/s

acceleration = -10 m/s/s (since the gravity is acting against the egg)

time = t seconds

From the first equation of motion:

<em>v = u + at</em>

<em>0 = 4.5 + (-10)t</em>

<em>t = -4.5 / -10</em>

t = 0.45 seconds

A 3.20 kg block starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless β = 30.0 ◦ incline, where it runs into a spring with
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) work done by gravitational force

= mg sinθ ( d + .21)

Potential energy stored in compressed spring

= 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 431 x ( .21 )²

= 9.5

According to conservation of energy

mg sinθ ( d + .21)  = 9.5

3.2 x 9.8 x sin 30( d + .21 ) = 9.5

d = 40 cm

b )

As long as mg sin30 is greater than kx ( restoring force ) , there will be acceleration in the block.

mg sin30 = kx

3.2 x 9.8 x .5 = 431 x

x =  3.63 cm

When there is compression of 3.63 cm in the spring , block will have maximum velocity. there after its speed will start decreasing.

2. It is now 10:29 a.m., but when the bell rings at 10:30 a.m. Suzette will be late for French class for the third time this wee
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

  • 62 seconds
  • no

Explanation:

The total travel time Suzette experiences is the sum of the times in each hallway. Using

  time = distance/speed

we can add the times.

  (35.0 m)/(3.50 m/s) +(48.0 m)/(1.20 m/s) +(60 m)/(5.0 m/s)

  = 10 s + 40 s + 12 s

  = 62 s

It takes Suzette 62 seconds to get to class. She does not beat the bell.
